Chapter One: Introduction of Kinomoto Ryuu and Li Xiang Fei
"I, Kinimoto Sakura take Li Syaoran..."
"I, Li Syaoran take Kinimoto Sakura..."
"To love forever"
Than everything went black. She stared blankly at the screen as tears ran down her face. It had been so long since that day... Slowly her eyes drooped and she fell asleep on the couch. Next to the doorway was Kinomoto Ryuu. He stared at her sadly... Everynight he would see her watching the tape and every night she would cry herself to sleep. He sighed and walked over to her and picked her up and took her to her room. He layed her down on her bed and kissed her forehead.
"Mother. You have to stop doing this to yourself." He whispered as he tucked her in and walked out of the room, swearing to himself that one day he would get the man who did this to her.
Hong Kong
"But-"
"Li Xiang Fei." Her father said in a harsh tone.
"Dad. Than my boyfriend will break up with me." She protested
"Than maybe you should have listened to me and never have agreed to go out with him."
"UGH!" She growled as she slammed the door when she left.
Why did her father have to be so strict? Every morning she had to wake up 3 hours before school started and train with him than go and shower and if she was lucky she would be able to take a 5 minute nap before heading off the school 15 minutes early. She often asked herself if he actually had done this. She sighed as she fell on her bed....
The next morning... At school....
"I'm sorry, Jinsu... I really want to be with you but I can't because my dad won't let me. I hope we can still be friends..." XiangFei said
"What makes you think that if your father won't let us go on a date, that we can be friends? .... XiangFei get real." Jinsu said as he left her.
Xiang Fei glared at him. She was slowly counting to ten trying to calm her self down before she went over there to beat the shxt out of him.
"HEY XIANG FEI!" Eunhye called out
"Hey! Eunhye... What's up?" Xiang Fei asked as she felt all her anger rush out of her
"Nothing. It's too early. What was Jinsu talking to you about?" She asked
"Haha.. That... My dad said I can't go out with him either. So I told him and he was like all pissy about it."
"Awww... Xiang Fei I'm really sorry. But it's all good right? You can find a better guy than Jinsu. At least now you know what he is really like."
"*sigh* Yeah..."
"EUNHYE!! XIANG FEI!!" SungMin yelled as she ran up to them
"What?" Xiang Fei and Eunhye asked worridly
"Did you see the new pictures of Ryuu??!!" She asked quickly
Xiang Fei sweatdropped... Eunhye however...
"What? New pictures? There are new pictures of that ugly bozo?" Eunhye
"OMG Kinomoto Ryuu is one of the hottest guys alive!! I can't believe you don't think that!!"Sung Min yelled
"HE IS SOO UGLY!!"
Xiang Fei shook her head. Her two best friends were always fighting if this Japanese model was hot or ugly. Personally she thought he was okay looking... He reminded her alot of her dad, maybe that was why she couldn't say anything about him. He always had a cold look and yet an aura of pride filled the air, yes it reminded too much of her dad.
"Xiang Fei?" Eunhye said
"Huh?"
"What do you think?" SungMin asked
"About Kinomoto Ryuu?"
"No about our physics teacher. YES Kinomoto Ryuu."
"He's okay... He reminds me of my dad..." Xiang Fei replied trailing off
"Of your dad?" SungMin questioned
"Yeah... That guy has a cold look to him... His hair... The aura that is around him... "
"But the point is, he has beautiful GREEN eyes, just like yours..." Sungmin said trailing off the topic
The bell started to ring...
"UGH... Class time already..." Eunhye said
"It'll be fine... Plus, Mr. Zhao said that we would actually do some spells today." XiangFei said cheerfully
"You try to make the best out of everything don't you?" YoungMin hissed in a sarcastic voice as she passed XiangFei and her friends
XiangFei started counting to ten slowly again to calm herself from cussing YoungMin out... But quickly smiled at the teacher who was passing by them.
"Good morning Mr. Zhao." XiangFei, Eunhye and SungMin greeted and bowed to him as they walked with him
"Good morning girls. We should hurry to class before I count all of us tardy." He said winking at them
They laughed politely as they nodded agreeing with him...
*Japan*
"RYUU!!!" A loud annoying voice called out to him
Ryuu ignored the call and kept on walking
"Ryuu wait up... You know. We are a couple." The voice called again
Ryuu turned around and stared into Kula's eyes
"Did I forget to tell you?" He asked coldly "We are through, and according to my knowledge we never went out. Now if you don't mind, I would like to get to class peacefully without an annoying girl pestering me."
Kula gaped and her eyes narrowed as she saw him walking toward his class..
...Classroom...
"Yo! Ryuu what's going on?" Mingyu greeted.
"Nothing exciting... " He answered back
"Did you break up with that bitch yet?"
"Kula? Yeah. Just a minute ago."
"Good. She was getting real annoying. So are you going?"
"Going where?"
"To the tournament in China. What else?"
"I dunno."
"The tournaments are next week and the plane leaves on Sunday. IN another words 2 more days." Mingyu stressed
"I know I know. But Aunt Tomoyo wants me to model for her next week and I'm afraid what will happen if I don't since I canceled the last one."
"She'll understand."
"Understand what?" Yoonsuk interrupted
"Why Ryuu WILL cancel the next shoot so he can go to the tournament, since he's like the best fighter." Mingyu said
"You mean you still didn't ask yet? My man, this is the LI-CLAN TOURNAMENT. The Li-Clan has the best fighters, plus I hear the heir is also competing, and he's supposed to be real good. And the famous Li Syaoran is going to teach the four finalists how to fight before the final round. Hey, you can come to my house today and you can ask my mom and your mom." Yoonsuk suggested
"I'll try but my--"
"No buts. I can get my mom to let you go... And Aunt Sakura is awesome. She'll let you go... Anyways, I was planning on asking my mom today too..."
After School at Yoonsuk's house...
"BUT"
"No buts. " Tomoyo answered sternly
"MOM THIS IS ONE OF THE--"
"Hiiragizawa Yoonsuk. I told you no. I have my reasons." Tomoyo responded in a voice meaning that this conversation was over
"Mom... The heir from the clan is supposed to be in the competition and he's supposed to be the best of the best." He tried to explain not getting the hint his mom was giving him
"It's a she." She corrected
"What? Who's a she?"
"The heir for the Li-Clan is a girl."
Yoonsuk's eyes widened.
"How.. How... DO you know? The best of the best can't be a .... a... Girl."
"I ... Yoonsuk. Ask your father about this." She finally said ... She knew she could not tell Yoonsuk about Sakura and Syaoran... Xiang Fei and Ryuu yet... No, not when she does not know the whole story...
"Okay." He said disappointingly and he walked to where Ryuu and his mother were.
"Ryuu... I... I would send you anywhere but to Hong Kong? No... Not yet..." She replied struggling to find the right words.... She felt her heart tremble at the thought of her daughter and ex-husband.
"Why not to Hong Kong? Mom. This is where the best of the best goes.. It's held by the Li Clan."
Sakura's heart stopped. "The... The Li Clan?" She stammered weakly now knowing it was sponsered by Syaoran...She knew she would be meeting him soon...
He nodded as he stared at her oddly because her face had gone pale at the name of Li.
"Mom? Are you okay?" He asked concernly because of the silence
"Ryuu... I'm sorry but you can't go." She finally said as she sat down.
"But..."
"No. And that is final."
Ryuu felt anger. Why couldn't his mother understand how important this was for him? She was the one who taught him everything to know about martial arts and she won't let him go to this tournament? He walked out of the room.
"Any luck?" Yoonsuk asked
"No."
"Man... My mom said no too. I can always ask my dad."
"He's going to say no."
"But he'll understand bett-"
"No, he won't."
"Huh?"
"Did I ever tell you who my master was for training?"
"No..."
"It was my mom. She taught me everything. She knows almost everything about martial arts. I have a this weird feeling she knows the Li's. I still can not defeat her when I challenge her. If she won't let me go to this, what makes you think that he'll let you go?"
"He won't." Yoonsuk sighed in defeat [Man... Ryuu is very stubborn. I'm sure my dad would persuade my mom... I'll ask him later.]
RRRrrrRRRR(phone ringing lolz...)
"Hello?" Ryuu answered
"Yo... This is Mingyu... What did your mom say?"
"She said no."
"Damn it.... My parents said no too. Right after they heard the words 'Li-Clan' they totally freaked out..."
"Same here..." Ryuu mumbled
"Do you want to go clubbing tonight? I really need to release some anger." Mingyu suggested
"I do too. Maybe we can think of something to convince them to let us go.."
"Yeah... well. See ya there." Mingyu said hanging up
"You wanna go clubbing with us?" Ryuu asked
"Yes."
They closed their eyes and teleported to their destination.
Tomoyo...
Tomoyo was roaming around the house looking for Sakura, she was supposed to be designing their next advertisement. She walked past the room Ryuu slept over in and saw Sakura weeping.
"SAKURA! Oh my.. What's wrong??" Tomoyo asked worriedly quickly making her ways towards her to comfort her
"Tomoyo...." Sakura barely managed to choke out.
"Sakura... Tell me whats wrong?"
Sakura's sobs stopped but her enegry was not there.."Ryuu... He wanted to go to Syaoran's tournament... I told him no, and now he's angry at me... I dont' know what to do... Should I tell him? Should I break my promise... Tomoyo..."
"Sakura... You said that you were going to the tournament to be one of the judges right? *Sakura nodded* And you said that you and Syaoran were going to talk about what to do than. So wait. It's only two days. When will you be leaving?"
" Sunday night at eleven."
**Elsewhere**
"Okay. Than it's settled we will leave on Sunday night at eleven. My mom should be gone by than." Ryuu said
"Okay. Well we better go tell our moms that we want to stay here for a few days because we are upset about them not letting us go." Mingyu suggested.
They nodded
"WAIT!!" Yoonsuk suddednly said
"What?" Mingyu and Ryuu replied
"What about food?"
--;; Mingyu and Ryuu
"We have money and we are only staying here until Sunday which is only like two days including today." Mingyu answered
"Okay. NOW we can go." ^^ Yoonsuk
--++ Mingyu and Ryuu
**CHINA**
Xiang Fei swung her sword fiercly at the wooden dummy. [Stupid tournament. Stupid father. Stupid EVERYTHING!! I can't get a boyfriend. I can't have fun. I can't do anything because those dumbass elders want me to become a mindless zombie for them. NOW they have the change the rule for the heir to be a guy. SO I HAVE to be the leader. GRRR]
Syaoran watched XiangFei turning the dummy into a pile of wood. Xiang Fei was just like Sakura, sweet and caring but when it came to fighting she was just like Syaoran. Her temper was short and she expressed it through martial arts and never took it out on anyone although once or twice in elementary school she send a couple of guys to the hospital for calling her a "girly girl"...
In couple of days and he would see Sakura again. They agreed they would meet on their wedding day to talk about what to tell their kids. But before that Sakura would be a judge with Syaoran at the tournament so it didn't seem like anything was rigged and also to attract more people to come since the "Card Mistress" was judging...
He would have to wait just two more days...
**Japan**
Sakura waited patiently for Ryuu to return home. She made dinner and was going to talk to him about her "business trip" so he wouldn't be worried about her when she's gone.
"Ryuu?" She called out when she heard the front door slam.
"Yes mother?"
"Are you okay? Come on let's eat dinner I bet you are hungry."
Ryuu glared at Sakura.
"KINOMOTO RYUU don't you dare give me that look. I know you are upset about the whole tournament. But you are not allowed to disrespect me like that." Sakura scolded.
"I'm sorry mother I'm not hungry I ate with the guys. Now if you will let me go, I'm going to stay up at your training place."
"Ryuu sit down. I need to talk to you about something before you go ..."
" Yes?"
"Sit down."
Ryuu sat down. and waited for Sakura to tell him.
"I'm going to be gone for the next few days. But I'll come before your birhtday alright? You can stay up at the 'club' or you can stay with Tomoyo. She said she wouldn't mind."
Ryuu nodded his head. "Is that all?"
"Yes."
"Then have a safe trip."He said leaving her to eat by herself.
THAT WAS CHAPTER ONE!!
